Purple was one of my fist colorful eyeshadows I started using, when I was in high school. It's been my beloved eyeshadow color ever since, even though I don't use it as often as for example my neutral browns. Smoky eye isn't what I would usually go for, but if I do, I prefer it to be colorful. Hence why I'm posting this purple smoky eye today. In general, purple eyeshadows look bomb on brown eyes as well as green ones.

I got this blush as a gift from a lovely friend Astrid. It's my first Bourjois blush, but I know this baked formula from their eyeshadows that I once had, many years ago. I wasn't sure I would like it, but the shade looks super natural, so I often reach for it when I want something pinkier. 

I'm sure you've all heard of Nivea Soft Cream. It's one of the basic drugstore universal creams for all parts of the body. Nivea in general has a long tradition among my relatives and I feel like at one point everyone used it and some are still faithful to it. This summer Nivea came out with a Mix Me set of three scented versions that you can mix and match to create your own scent.

It's rare that I post a separate brush review, because I just feel like most of you aren't that interested in these posts. I've done post of my favorite brushes, but whenever I come upon some really nice for the price, I want to share it with you. Today is that occasion. I'm talking about Ecotools, which is a brand the brand that is not talked about a lot, but has great quality brushes. I've recently ordered their Define & Highlight Duo and it deserves a separate review.
